- ITOC Google Group (transition from Yahoo Groups)
- Monthly vlogs from the ITOC council
- Article submission(s) for the RID VIEWS
- Create a sense of solidarity and belongingness for interpreters from traditionally marginalized ethnic backgrounds by actively holding brave spaces for networking and professional discussion.
- Foster and recognize the talents within the ITOC community by seeking and prioritizing interpreters and transliterators of color as presenters during ITOC forums at regional and national conferences.
- Disseminate a member survey to have the ITOC membership provide feedback on the direction of ITOC for upcoming years.
